About Roz & Be Kind TextilesRoz Slade is a Melbourne textile designer and maker interested in supporting society’s deep social connection to textiles, and nurturing an interest in the therapeutic act of hand-making.

After graduating Textile Design and Development at RMIT, where she majored in weave and printmaking, she stepped away from the ethical drift of fast fashion and textile waste, to create a modest range of high-quality products featuring sustainable methods and ethically sourced materials under the brand Be Kind Textiles. Spending the following years exploring every craft within her reach in her own personal practice, she is sharing her results and lifelong love of art and textiles with willing students.Visit Be Kind Textiles Instagram or Facebook
